| Abstract: |
| In this paper, an eco-epidemiological model where prey disease is structured as a susceptible-infected model is investigated. Thresholds that control disease spread and population persistence are obtained. Existence, stability and instability of the system are studied. Hopf bifurcation is shown to occur where a periodic solution bifurcates from the coexistence equilibrium. Simulations show that the system exhibits chaotic phenomena when the transmission rate is varied. |
